25,227 VS Code issues show developers argue about agent plumbing, not about the AI risks researchers write papers on
arXiv 2609.04680 (4 September) applies BERTopic to 43,806 VS Code GitHub issues from January 2021 to June 2026, filtered to 25,227 AI-related ones, with Mann-Kendall trend tests on monthly prevalence. Discussion is dominated by operational concerns: agent management, configuration, reliability, authentication, and billing. The risks emphasized in survey literature are comparatively rare in what practitioners actually file, which is a useful corrective if you are deciding what to harden in a tool people will really use.
